This is not supported. Pipelines can only be imported into newer (or equal) versions of Data Collector, as the version they were exported from. You should always keep the same version in "development" as in "production" for this reason, as well as others (ex: to ensure desired behavior doesn't change with release changes).

If you want to experiment with newer Data Collector versions, that should be done in a parallel environment, where you can import the pipelines you have exported from your main environment.
